I have taken Humira with both of my pregnancies with no problems. My GI did take me off the Humira for the next few weeks with the anticipation of delivery and will start back a week after I deliver. Baby should have any live vaccines for 6 months because the baby's immune system could be a little lower with me being on the meds.

I'm 24 weeks and on humira and 6mp. My GIs are keeping me on it throughout pregnancy and baby is right on track and healthy. No live vaccines at first (I think it's just rotavirus that will be delayed). My maternal fetal medicine and GI doctors both have told me I can breastfeed as humira is a large molecule drug and does not pass through breast milk. Since it does pass through the placenta, it will be in babies system and your doctors may do additional blood tests on baby during the first few months to test liver function. Soooo many women with auto immune diseases take during pregnancy.
